Who’s Favored in Packers at Steelers? No Change After Aaron Rodgers Signing

It’s official. With Aaron Rodgers signing with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Rodgers will face the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night on Oct. 26.

The expectation all along has been that Rodgers would sign with the Steelers. Thus, the Packers opened as 1.5-point favorites for the Week 8 clash when the schedule was released and they remain 1.5-point favorites as of Sunday morning at DraftKings Sportsbook. The over/under remains 44.5 points.

Of course, this is not the first time a legendary Packers quarterback faced his former team. In 2009, Brett Favre signed with the Vikings after one year with the Jets. Favre beat the Packers twice, 30-23 at Lambeau Field in October and 38-26 at Minnesota in November.

What can the Steelers expect from Rodgers? He was mediocre for the Jets last season as they finished 5-12. Of 27 qualifying quarterbacks, Rodgers finished 19th in rating (90.5), 24th in completion percentage (63.0), eighth in passing yards (3,897) and seventh in touchdowns (28). Rodgers ranks No. 1 in NFL history in career passer rating but that was the lowest mark off his career.

At FanDuel Sportsbook, Rodgers’ over/under is 3,300.5 yards. For Jordan Love, his over/under is 3,600.5 yards.

The Packers are favored in 13 games. The Week 1 line against the Detroit Lions is the only one that’s changed, with the Packers moving from 0.5 favorites to 1.5-point favorites.
